"I joined the gym because my active lifestyle slowed down when we transitioned our dairy farm to beef and I got a desk job in town. I didn't realize how much strength I lost until I tried to do farm work again for a day and could hardly move the next day because I was so sore. I decided that I needed to regain some strength so I could continue being active on our farm.
I had never stepped foot in a gym before so I did the Smart Start program with Ann to learn how to use the equipment. One year later, I not only feel comfortable in the gym, but I was recently able to spend a whole weekend fixing fence on our farm and although I was sore, my body was able to recover quickly. It's proof that the gym has helped me regain some of my lost strength.
I have grown to love working out so much that I have since become a certified personal trainer myself, and have started working with other beginners on the same Smart Start program that I began with.
I love helping other women realize their potential not only in the gym, but in their lives. I experienced first hand how investing in myself at the gym empowered me to make changes in my life. Helping others see that for themselves gives purpose to my passion for exercise."
